Story
Tink and his brother, Coop are stray cats that been visiting since summer 2024. Tink is extremely affectionate and loves to be brushed and petted. Tink was neutered and had his first vaccines on 11/12. Tink is FIV positive and needs to be an indoor cat only. We have two other cats with FIV and they have lived long and healthy lives! I would absolutely love to keep this cat but I am a Mother to five other indoor cats. Tink will go to his new owner with a supply of food and his paperwork. The adoption fee is negotiable. Please check out Cooper’s profile as well!

Story
We adopted Ruby from a Charlotte shelter when she was 6 weeks old. She is now 4.5 years old. In the last few months she has become aggressive, especially towards me (hissing and wanting to scratch or bite me). She has also went after my wife and kids. Normally she just likes to lay around like any cat. She does not like to be pet, although she loves to be brushed, especially when she is eating. She is a strictly indoor house cat. She was never outside. Ruby loves to rub against your legs and loves her treats. My vet cleared her of any health issues. I was told she would make a great barn cat or may like to convert to an outdoor cat.

Story
Hi! I'm Figaro. I'm 8 months old and a Hemingway cat! I have 6 toes on both front paws, which means I'm polydactyl. You can see my fancy paws in my photos. I'm one of 5 kittens born to a cat owned by a lady with Alzheimer’s. The lady next door took us in to care for us and to prevent my mom from having litter after litter. My foster mom named me after the cat in Pinocchio. I'm very friendly with my foster mom, but I'm still skittish around strangers. However, when I realize that you have food for me, I'll be your best friend in no time at all. Don't know yet if I'll be a lap cat, but I do love to be petted and I purr instantly. I am neutered and have had my rabies and distemper shots. I will need to be an indoor cat where I can be safe and live a long, happy life. I am bonded with my brother Figaro, which you see in one of the photos. I would be so good if we could get adopted together. He is also a Hemingway cat!

Story
I am the black male of two siblings. My sister's name is LuLu. We are seven months old. We enjoy playing with each other and with our toys. I love attention and getting loving but my sister, LuLu, has some differences. She requires a little more patience to come around in a new environment. I feel that we would be better if we were adopted together because of our bond and my sister needs some support from me to have a smoother adjustment to our forever home, but we can be separated if absolutely needed. If you would be interested in giving us our forever home, here is some information you would need to know: Our adoption fees would be $75 each if adopted separately, but if you would like to keep us together, the adoption fee would be reduced to 50% off to cover a portion of our expenses for the rescue. The rescue will also provide some essentials we would need in our new home.

Story
I am Lannie, the female sibling, and my brother is Linnie. We are seven months old now. We are close to looking alike but have a few color differences. Lannie has more of a silver color to him and I have more of a brown color like our momma. We enjoy playing and chasing each other. He has a more curious personality than me. Love attention and giving love while he likes to explore and play. He enjoys catching me off guard and wrestling with me. While our fosters have been awesome, we would be so excited to find our forever home. We would love to be adopted together so we could be playmates but if we absolutely need to be separated we understand. If you would be interested in giving us our forever home, here is some information you would need to know: Our adoption fees would be $75 each if adopted separately, but if you would like to keep us together, the adoption fee would be reduced to 50% off to cover a portion of our expenses for the rescue.
